Reviews

[Ruby Escalona · Rating 5 out of 5]

A lot less commentaries than the Take Two book. I also enjoyed the second book more - but don't get me wrong. Maybe it's because I was just a bigger fan of the band during the second time around that I enjoyed it better.

Nevertheless this book is a must-have for all TT fans - loads of gorge photos!

A must-have for any propper Take That fan. With pictures of the boys in the early 90's and a lot of interesting information you're in for a treat whilst reading this!

Stunning pictures gread for a fan's collection but sadly lacking in text.

I ADORE this book. Don't know why I haven't reviewed it before. Read it many times but then I read it again this morning ready for seeing them in concert today.

Nothing that surprising for hard-core fans but the pictures are beautiful nonetheless.
